Sales and Use Tax Annotations

Annotation 425.1150

(b) SPECIFIC ITEMS CLASSIFIED.

425.1150Syringes, Disposable and Pre-Filled. Syringes are normally regarded as devices, and the amounts from the sale or purchase therefore are taxable. However, when a syringe is sold pre-filled with an exempt medicine, is disposable, and is for a one-time use only, the pre-filled syringe is regarded as a container sold filled with exempt contents. The price sold or paid for the syringe in this situation is exempt. 4/24/95.
